What's The Next Milestone...

... that we should be tracking?

It is now less than 60 days to our meeting at the Hofbrauhaus, construction has begun, we have our plane tickets, we have our hotel reservations, and some poeple have their Lederhosen.  While day trips have been discussed, final planning and confirmation typically occurs "on site".

So....  What's next?

Maybe I need to head down to the Hofbrauhaus in Newport and do some training.  Or, since I'll be in the Pittsburgh area this weekend, maybe the Hofbrauhaus Pittsburgh

There's a HBH in Pittsburgh? Nice.

Yes, now is when training happens in earnest. Hit full stride just befor eyou jump on the plane.

I'd start with 12 oz curls... then 16oz, 22oz, then up to 33.8oz. You don't want to stress the muscles... remeber to stretch before drinking.

Alkoholische has gone as far as to order his trip euro’s from the local bank which quoted him a 14 cent difference compared to the currency exchange quote from the BWI airport. His thinking was that with the uncertainty with the current state of our economy it could not hurt to get today’s rate today because it might not look so good next week with a possible default..

Just for the record.....

There will be no default next week. There is plenty of revenue to pay bond holders and other government obligations if the debvt limit is not raised. Our fearless leaders would just need to prioritize where the rest of the money goes. Military, Social Security, Medicare are all good things. Maybe cut back most of the bloated government programs; Education Department? Labor Department? Shrimp Treadmills?

They need to learn to play together. If the credit rating drops and I pay and extra 1000 a month in interest, the net impact will be the tea party raised my taxes. Go figure.
